Check out World-Class Long Jumper Will Williams (IG @ijump_4_you) jump out of the gym! I was VERY excited to break down this jump as it speaks to the SAME 2-foot technique principles that I coach on the daily. Notice the following points:
1) Active PUSH through the Penultimate Stride
2) Tall Torso through the penultimate
3) Weight BEHIND the plant foot
4) Deliberate and Aggressive block foot (last contact)
5) Head neutral and eyes up, NOT the head.
and so on and so on and so on......
Enjoy this breakdown and don't forget to SUBSCRIBE for more breakdowns, technique coaching and jump training!

Tyler is a 14-yr veteran of the S&C world, former Professional Dunker and National Level Track athlete. He works with athletes of ALL ability levels to improve the technical components of jumping, helping athletes gain upwards of 4/5" of vertical in one session!
His passion for jumping is infectious and athletes that have worked with him all agree! Here is what a couple athletes had to say about working with Tyler:
Sophie Bukovec (Team Canada Beach Volleyball)
"I'm absolutely shocked at how I was able to gain a couple inches on my jump in just a few short minutes! Tyler definitely knows what he is talking about. What's great is that he really looked at the athletes and fine tuned things that would help the individual rather than just preaching about broader, over-arching techniques that would hopefully fit. I stayed to listen to him speak about jump technique TWICE! I learned so much and I didn't want it to stop!"
